At Elroy Air, we build autonomous vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) cargo aircraft systems to change the way the world moves goods. Transporting cargo by air is faster and more efficient than by land or sea, but before recent technological and regulatory developments, it was prohibitively expensive. Today, we’re able to expand middle-mile logistics possibilities across multiple sectors. The commercial express shipping industry spends $140B annually on the middle-mile and needs faster, better solutions – while the armed forces are increasingly prioritizing unmanned aerial cargo delivery systems.

These partners and customers are already responding enthusiastically to the technologies we are pioneering. As we develop and deploy these systems, we are looking for people like you: motivated collaborators, excited by our mission and by the rare opportunity to improve how logistics works around the world. You will play an important role in establishing Elroy Air as the industry standard in this massive market.

Diverse perspectives at all levels are critical to innovation and employee development. We encourage our team to bring their whole selves to Elroy. This includes but is not limited to gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender expression, religion, age, ability, parenthood status, veteran status, educational background, citizenship status, or any combination of these characteristics.

As a Senior Structural Analyst on the Mechanical Engineering team you will be responsible for performing comprehensive structural analysis supporting exciting new products throughout the entire product lifecycle. In this role, you will help define requirements, guide concepts, perform trade studies, optimize preliminary designs, check detailed designs, and support structural test campaigns and certification. Working as part of a small team to develop validated methods, tools, and templates, you will help set the standard (and perhaps the state-of-the-art) for aircraft structural analysis.

This is an on-site, full-time, exempt role based at our headquarters in South San Francisco, CA.
